New Jersey and knicks/bibs
Postby Stackhat » Thu Mar 19, 2009 8:26 pm
I need to get myself a new jersey and bibshorts or knicks and wondering what people have found to be good quality ones that are very comfortable.
Realise that Assos and Capoforma etc are meant to be the absolute business though their prices are hideously expensive. Are they that good or just brand name? and is there something maybe half as expensive that is also good quality and are comfortable. Have had cheap knicks before though they don't last long and aren't very well made so looking to step upto something better. Opinons?

G'day
I am looking at a Sugoi pair of knicks in the near future. I have a pair of Ground Effects knicks which I feel are good value.
I personally find Nalini knicks (team ones) and shorts are nothing special and for around the same $$$ can get better quality knicks, e.g., Ground Effect.
Regards
Andrew

Get onto Probikekit.com . You will get good quality nalini bibs for around $40 - 70 for the team ones. Some 08 stock left over.

The near future turned out to be Saturday. I got a pair of Sugoi RS bib knicks for $235.00. Very nice indeed.Aushiker wrote:G'day

+1, Don't rate those cheap PBK Nalini bibs very highly, though the higher grade stuff might be OK.Aushiker wrote:G'day

I bought some dhb bibs from Wiggle a while ago which I think are great for the price (about $70 then IIRC)

I've read on other cycling forums that they are see through. Put me off buying them.Aushiker wrote:The near future turned out to be Saturday. I got a pair of Sugoi RS bib knicks for $235.00. Very nice indeed.Aushiker wrote:G'day

I think this is the wrong thread, as it is 4 years old, and about knicks, not bikes.

I looked at the name GT Avalanche hard tail and thought wow I wonder what sort of padding is in those knicks for it to be called a hard tail.

Ground effects. There have been a couple of knicks/jerseys reviewed on the front page of BNA recently. I love all of my ground effects stuff, never had a problem with any of it.
